I applied online. I interviewed at Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey.

Interview

interview process went smoothly initially. Prior to the interview, the recruiters were very communicative with me, even asked me to come in for another position i was a fit for. After both interviews which lasted 3 hours a pieces, I followed up with the recruiter about 2.5 weeks later. The recruiter was no longer responding to my emails or communicating in any way. I ended up reaching out to the person who scheduled me for the interviews, who advised me that they were interested in me for yet another role (role # 3) that i had no idea what it entailed. He also mentioned that they had no information on when they would have information on this new job, leaving me as a candidate in limbo. The recruiter at this point still had not even sent me any notification of the two initial jobs i went in for. Overall this experience has been very discouraging. Each interview went very well and though i have no problem not getting a job, it is the lack of communication after the interviews that was disappointing. Once i had the interviews the recruiters no longer acknowledged any of my follow ups and i was now being considered for another role that i had no clue about and was left in limbo indefinitely. Employers do not give candidates the same respect that they require from you as a professional and it is very disheartening. initially i was looking forward to working with BCBS, but after this experience I advised them I no longer wish to be considered for a role that has uncertainty.

Interview Questions

Why do you want to work for Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey? Answer Question

I applied online. The process took 4+ weeks. I interviewed at Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey (Newark, NJ) in March 2017.

Interview

I applied for the position through the Horizon careers website. About a week after applying, I received an email from HR with available times for a phone interview. The phone interview was very brief... what my current work situation was, what the job description was, what my salary range was. Then I was informed the hiring manager would like to meet and was I available to go in for an interview. A few days later I was contacted by email about dates to go in to meet and days/times were very specific. I met with three people... a department manager, then the hiring manager joined us and then HR was the final person. Total interview time was 1.5 hours. It went very smoothly and most of the discussion was about what the role would entail, why the role was being filled (a retirement) and a lot about the work I have been doing. I showed them my most recent work, answered some specific project questions and felt pretty good about the conversation. The hiring manager did inform me that the role might involve more video/interactive (vs. print) than what the current person was doing which was a bit different than the original job description.

Interview

First you get a call from a clueless HR type. You go through your resume. Then you're invited in. The people I spoke to were the most arrogant discourteous people who either were late or didn't keep their appointment time at all. Not at all impressed coming from a company who's a market leader.

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey (Ewing, NJ) in February 2017.

Interview

The interview was seem less and was even offered the position before I left. They were looking for 5 people for a short term project. During the interview I was told that there are other possible longer term positions that are available and that might be a good fit for me.

Even though the job was offered and my agency was notified that they wanted me for the job the background took a long time. My agency had to call a few times so that my check could be closed out and I could start.

During my first week on the job I was interviewed for another temp position. Although, I am not sure if I am going to get that position.
